He Writes a Letter to the South
ern Forestry Congress.
HUNTSVILLE, Ala, Oct. 2s. - The
Southern forestry congress closed its
sittings yesterday. The following let
ter from Jefferson Davis was read:
Beauvoir, Miss, Oct. 16.-Sidney Root.
Esq.-My Dear Sir: Please accept my thanks
for the reports you have sent me of the pro
ceedlngs of the forestry congress- By
brief compliance with your request will en-
deavor to show my grateful acknowledge
ment OF your consideration. The subject TO
directed has long commanded my deepest
interest, and 1t has grieved me to see as is
too often the case, the danger that DELAY of
appropriate remedies has created In 1880
there was between the upper Mississippi and
the great lakes the greatest forests of mast
timber to be found east of the Rocky noun
talns Now they are said to have been quite
destroyed. Would it not be better to transfer
the control of the public lands to the states
in which they lieg Agents of equal capacity
with those heretofore employed might he
obtained and the state supervision would
have the prompting of direct interest and
greater facilities for information. The
Northwestern states should preserve their
forests, as they have the best mast timber
now growing. Beyond the preservation of
timber for mechanical and domestic uses.
there are climatic and other considerations
of grave importance. After an exhaustive
review OF the forestry question he closes his
letter in the following language: With graft
hcat1on L have noticed the noble purposes of
your assoclatlon contrasting so honorably
with the selfish aims of partisan strife. and
with cordial wishes for the success of the
forestry congress, am, faithfully yours.

ABOUT HOTELS.


"Quits" INDUCES IN Little Mild
Criticism of Northwestern Ho-
tells.
The subject of hotels is of deep i'm
portance to every travelling man. 1t is
frequently said by some irate landlord,
concerning some "kick," cit is better
than they get at home" That may or
may not be true, but this much is
true, there are hundred and one little
comforts and luXuries-intangible, many
OF them-Obtainable at home which can
not be enjoyed at the best of the hotels.
Hence it is only natural that men who
are away from home the greater part of
the year should desire the best, and re-
sent any seeming imposition. This is
one recOmpense that should be given
them for the loss of home comforts and
the society of friends and family. In
writing OF hotels it is not my purpose to
kick" OF to express my own opinion
entirely, but the consentient opinion of
my brother commercial travellers. If
any one gets angry at my friendly criti-
clSm, l am sorry for him. He certainly
does not agree with Burns in:
..Oh, wad some power the giftie gle us,
To sac ourselves as others sac u.s.
The Bradford house at Milbank is a
cOmm0diouS building admirably ar
ranged for hotel purposes. 1t is neatly
and tastily furnished and a general air
of cleanliness and comfort pervadeS the
whole establishment. III. w. Bradford,
the proprietor, is genial and accommo-
dating and as rule keeps about him
civil lot of help, The one great draw
back to an otherwise frst-class house is
the table. AS general thing there is
plenty of food and clean enough, but it
Invariably comes on the table cold. 1t
would seem an easy matter to remedy
this one cause of complaint.
The Foster house at Redfield is de-
servedly popular hotel, where one can
get good meals, cosy rooms and clean,
comfortable beds. In many respects it
is model house. Ours.

The large advertisement of Max
Strouse in this mornings GLOBE will
attract-as it should-a great deal of at
tention. This enterprising firm some
time ago offered S25 Overcoat to the
person guessing nearest the time of the
first snowfall, and the lucky man, it
seems, was Mic P. Brady, residing at $50
Indiana avenue, West st. Paul, who
guessed within just five minutes of the
time. One person put it as late as Dec.
20; another from Anoka mixed his in
with stickful of poetry, and offered, in
the last line, to ''stand the beer'' if he
won. The list includes bankers, preach
ers and lawyers; clerks, laborers,
gamblers and railroad officials; news
boys, bOOtblacks, wealthy danes and
hired girls; newspaper men most of
whom probably grasped eagerly at the
chance), eX-convicts, plumbers and
crooks-in all, about 5000. The Gil
fillan block alone contributed 81, and 81
towns in Minnesota, Dakota, Iowa and
wisconsin sent in a few each. Mr..
Strouse is satisfied that people read the

More Lake Disasters.

TABERMoRAY, Ont, Oct. 2S.-The
steamer Anderson arrived here last night
from ManitOulin island, and brought
news of two wrecks not reported. One
is the barge Sylvia Morton, of Detroit.
She was driven ashore on Manitoulin
island, but her crew all escaped. A
large vessel, name unknown, sank near
Providence Bay. The captain of the
Anderson thinks the crew must have
persisted, as nothing was known of them
on the island.
MILWAUKEE, Oct. 2S.-The protracted
absence of the schooner G. II. johnson,
laden with coal from Cleveland for the
Bay View rolling mills, is becoming a
matter of surmise here and causes anx-
lety among those having friends ON
board. According to bill of lading ON
file here, the johnson finished loading
and was ready to leave Cleveland for
Milwaukee on the 2Sth of September.
exactly one month ago. AS two severe
gales have swept over the lakes since
the beginning of October, there is good
reason to fear that serious disaster has
befallen the schooner.

WORKERS BANQUET.
He Gets in at the Opening of a
Hotel at Pelican RAPIDS.

Hotel at Pelican Rapids.
The Grand hotel at Pelican Rapids,
Mimi, was opened to the travelling pub
lie Oh Monday evening, Oct. "a. This,
house was built some years ago but has
has never been fitted up till now, when
the business men of the village, seeing
the great necessity for better hotel ia
cilities, persuaded Mr.. Murray, late of
the Blodgett house, to open and run the
house for year at least. From the,
owners he secured liberal terms and the
business men aforesaid gave substantial
encouragement by advancing necessary
funds to tit up and open the house, thus
showing an amount of confidence in Mr..
Murray, as well as the future of their
bright little town, which your CORE
spondent is bound to say he does not
think misplaced in either instance.
The travelling men who arrived
that night found a warm well
come and dining room that
compares favorably with any
north of st. Paul. They, as well as the
very appreciative citizens who helped
to carry Off the good things Mrs. Murray
had so lavishly provided, voted the
Grand screaming success. In con-
cluSion, let me say to the boys, one and
all, If you do not patrOniZe this new and
frSt-class house, you will, when you
kick vigorously as of yore, about the
service at the old house, get mighty lit
tie sympathy from YORKER.

Beyond those Immediately interested
there is no adequate conception of the
vastness of the paper bag business. There
are four houses in this city, employing
each about fifty or sixty boys and girls,
and running two or three cutting and
pasting machines and printing presses,
that turn bags out by the hundreds of
thousands every day. The demand is said
to be greater than the supply. The orders
are not confined to this city alone, but
come also from distant towns. A new
and ingenious labor saving machine, that
has been tested and worked admirably, is
now being set up in one of these establish
ments and great things are expected of it,
Straw, white and MANILA are the papers
mostly used, and black ink. Many of the

If we're the proprietor Of hotel would
cash checks to every man l knew and consid-
cred responsible. The hotel would lose no
more money under that method than it does
by the present rule, which makes the cashier
responsible for any losses. Rascals are con-
tinually getting in on US as they do on the
banks, for the hotels do regular banking
business with their guests and are forced to
accommodate good many other people, just
as the banks are. We lose 1900 to 81, 500 a
year in worthless checks.
Some of the fellows who beat us are very
Shrewd about it. For instance, there was a
young fellow about here awhile ago who was
supposed to have business relations with
Warner Miller He got quite intimate with
one Of the proprietors of the hotel, and used
to sit down in the Office with him and talk.
After one Of these talks one day he came
over to the cashiers desk and said: "By the
way, 1 wish you would cash check for me" !"
There was no prettier confidence game in the
world. His check was cashed and came back
marked, "No funds" A well known lawyer,
who is down on his luck, got into the hotel in
much the same manner. Take it all in all,
the hotel can afford to lose some money in
this way, because its refusal to accommodate
people will drive away great deal Of people

Baron Anselm was entertaining some
friends at dinner, window directly oppo-
site his seat happened to be Enclosed.

emily came flying, during the dessert, a

a gold piece and put it in the cover of the
still unopened letter, which he returned
with the same celerity and by the same
way it had come. This novel and unique
mode Of bestowing charity was highly ap-
preciated by his guests. Rothschild, how
ever, was not satisfied; he could not feel
easy until he knew what had become of
the letter and its contents. Apologizing,
therefore, to the company, he asked per-
mission to rise q moment. He then ad-
vanced to the open window, leaned out
and returned, evidently satisfied and
happy, saying half audibly, "placirt." 1t
is interesting to know how solicitious the
wealthy financier was, from force of habit,
to know whether even such o trihe as that
which he had just given away had been
well bestowed. York Tribune Book
